Hotels need federal aid to reopen at full staff, industry trade group says

Pat Nabong/Sun-Times The return of Lollapalooza is a huge boost for Chicago tourism. But if hotels are to take full advantage by rehiring a full staff they need city and state help, an industry trade group said Tuesday. Michael Jacobson, president and CEO of the Illinois Hotel & Lodging Association, is pushing for a hotel-only version of the Payroll Protection Program that helped restaurants survive the pandemic. Jacobson is asking Mayor Lori Lightfoot to earmark $75 million of the $1.9 billion avalanche of federal coronavirus relief on its way to the city to help Chicago hotels staff up for a full reopening. That’s roughly $1,500-per-room at every city hotel.

How the pandemic produced a surprising silver lining in the fight against homelessness

When COVID-19 halted the world a little more than a year ago, one group of people appeared to be particularly vulnerable to this new, little-understood coronavirus: the homeless. Often suffering from poor health and packed head-to-foot in shelters — known as congregate housing — homeless individuals were one of several groups of people who, it was feared, would be decimated by the spread of COVID-19. While those experiencing homelessness did suffer COVID’s aggressive spread initially, a silver lining has emerged out of the deadly pandemic. Hotels, abandoned by business travelers and tourists, were used to house people who would otherwise be sleeping in congregate shelters or on pads arranged on the floor of a church basement. Social service agencies, doctors and those who stayed in the hotels are now calling it a game-changing model for how to stabilize people experiencing homelessness and get them into permanent housing and off the street for good.
